The store associate David was very helpful in identifying the repair kit I needed to fix the door latch cables for my truck. He even pulled up a YouTube video to ensure I knew how to use it and the kit worked perfectly. This was the 3rd auto parts store I had been to to get some help with my cable repair but it will be the first one next time!

HOW DO BRAKES WORK?
Expand FAQ item
Brakes work by using friction to turn kinetic energy into heat. There are two designs: drum brakes (older), and disc brakes (newer). Both use hydraulic pressure to move a piston outward. In disc brakes, the piston is located inside a caliper that houses brake pads and fits over the rotor. The friction lining on the pads makes contact with the rotor to slow the vehicle. In drum brakes, the piston moves two curved shoes lined with friction material against the inside of the brake drum.
